Welcome to Top of the Morning by Mint.. I’m Nelson John and here are today’s top stories. Donald Trump just made a dramatic claim aboard Air Force One: “The war in Gaza is over.” The US President is flying to the Middle East, first stopping in Israel to address parliament, then co-hosting a peace summit in Egypt with President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi. His peace deal’s first step — Hamas frees all Israeli hostages from the October 7 attack, while Israel releases 2,000 Palestinian prisoners and allows aid into Gaza. Netanyahu called it a “victory,” though he warned the fight isn’t done. World leaders, including Modi’s envoy Kirti Vardhan Singh, will join the summit, signaling a potential end to one of the deadliest modern conflicts that’s killed over 67,000 in Gaza. Meanwhile, diplomacy’s getting a reboot elsewhere. Canada’s Foreign Minister Anita Anand landed in New Delhi to “hit reset” on strained India-Canada ties. This marks the first official visit under new PM Mark Carney. She’ll meet Jaishankar, Piyush Goyal, and key business leaders in Mumbai before heading to China and Singapore — part of Canada’s Indo-Pacific push to rebuild strategic partnerships. In Kabul’s shadow, Taliban foreign minister Amir Khan Muttaqi faced tough questions from women journalists after earlier barring them. His response — it was a “technical issue” — didn’t land well. The optics? A regime still struggling to convince the world it respects women’s rights. And in markets, gold and silver are on fire. Silver neared $51 an ounce, gold hit $4,060, and traders are literally flying silver bars across the Atlantic. A mix of short squeezes, Fed cuts, and US-China tensions has sent precious metals soaring up to 80% this year.
